Cast Iron Billy is a luxuriously smooth and heady stout that harkens back to the smog-filled streets of a Victorian London consumed by the industrial revolution. Imperial in terms of its ABV, this 10.5% delight is a majestic drop of roasty and malty beer that packs aromas of coffee, dark berry flavours and delicate hints of vanilla. A real treat of a brew that should be savoured slowly and enjoyed to the fullest.

Intensiver röstiger Beginn. Etwas Schokolade, viel Kaffee, Röstnoten. Das intensive Gemisch bleibt konstant, die Süße vergleichsweise gering. Dunkel malziger Abgang mit mehr Kaffee als zuvor. Cremig. 10/13/13/13//13
